Does this make Satanism better than Christianity?

IMO Satanist have more morals and respect for other people, but to the same effect both Satanist and Religious folk praise something who doesnt exist, and often go to dangerous extremes to prove it.

I completely agree. I'm studying Satanism for the first time and there are subsections within Satanism as well. You have theoretic Satanists who celebrate what Satan represents, atheistic Satanists, theistic Satanists who believe in deities... monotheistic, duotheistic, polytheistic, or pantheistic Satanists.

I believe the reason for Satanists "good morals" is that there is no real high or divine standard for morals. Either it is achievable or over-achieved. There isn't the pressure of trying to be "good"...you determine what is good for yourself...exactly what I believe Satan wants.

pressure = force Do you believe that you should be forced to be a certain way? Do you believe that God lets people in Heaven who have been forced to be good?

What good will they do?

That's what I'm thinking. I don't see a new low.

No, but is God actually forcing anybody to do good? That is the impression though; God throws a bunch of rules at mankind and says if you don't do this, then you are going to Hell. But, it is not about what mankind can do to get into Heaven.

God doesnt care about mankind, all we have is a book of don'ts and thats it. Often when mankind tries to do something to help each other out God or Gods goons stop it. I never could understand why God would have created us here if he didnt think we could handle ourselves, for someone who knows the future he is blind to us.

God does care...just not in the way we want Him to. We want God to be a means to an end and we are disappointed when we don't get our way. And like I was mentioning, it isn't about what we can do to get into Heaven...it's what has already been done.

So kids being born into areas with no water, food, jobs, or means to go get these things is gods way of caring? Millions of innocent people dying for no reason during wars, thousands of people who praise his ass constently and would do anything for him dyin because of curable diseases because they think he will heal them. If this is God's way of showing he gives a shit then god aint got no good in him at all.

I would have to borrow this phrase from "heaven"...who is innocent? According to God, everyone is a sinner no matter how good you are, all are deserving of Hell. I'll take a terminal disease any day if it means I come to understand what God has done for sin. I won't like it, but I hope to persevere.
